Let's start the discussion and get into Kenan-Flagler this year. I applied last year but didn't hear anything. How about you all?

Just curious, is it usual for schools to review waitlists this late in the process? Just curious as I'm in one myself...

Hey wallstreetmonkey7 , I think yes. I could see many other schools have also started reviewing the waitlists. I am hoping something positive from UNC now, though I am least hopeful. Are you waitlisted at UNC or admitted? Your Decision Tracker shows you are an admit of UNC.

I'm admitted to UNC. I'm just on a waitlist of another school so I was curious... Hope you get in! Good luck!

Hey Abhimahna are you planning to drop Emory for UNC? Posted from my mobile device

Hey Maupassant9 , That's a good question for which I am also seeking an answer. Stay tuned!

Hey guys, Did anyone get good news after wait list review or any idea when they would typically release decisions after the review? Good luck to all the waitlisted candidates!

Hey Kumarp , Nope, I don't think anyone of us got the news as of now. Since the deadline for accepting the waitlist was 29th May, I am assuming we will hear in a week or so. Thanks!

Thanks Abhimahna! Lets hope for the best

Hey guys - I was admitted off the waitlist yesterday. I think it’ll be done on a rolling basis up to the start of classes Posted from my mobile device
